As a survivor from onslaught of attacks from my Uncles, Lifeguards and adult males in my childhood, I must say that with time and open discussion, this child will recover. I am more worried that this child will blame himself for causing harm to his parent. The boy will not be wanted by his parents, foster parents, or his extended family because of the blame and “GAY” stigma surrounding this rape. The boy did nothing to deserve this torture but he will have the scares of a life time. Stop the hate against the boy; blame the adults and work to recover the damage. Hate = Hate so work to improve Love.

While it is a child molestation story, unfortunately it was gay men who did the evil act, therefore, making it a news event pertaining to the GLBT community because it is sick people like this that causes such stigma for the rest of us.

Plenty of hate here. its so sad for this young boy. the guys who did this are truly sick and have some serious issues. they should not be able to be free to hurt people again and cannot be trusted for a second chance, however the hate spewing from people's comments is frightening to me. the anger of people commenting is saddening.

Any prison time is pretty much a death sentence for the likes of these guys. It is true what you heard, child molestors are deeply hated in prison. They will have to spend the rest of their lives in solitary, or being brutally raped assaulted and possibly murdered in gen pop.

It is so sad to see this!! These guys will get what's coming to them in prison. Sadly, I pray that this child will not go down the path of his abusers and he will find the strength and courage to heal.

Why do people always jump to the death penalty? There are things worse than death and people like this deserve just that. I would gladly pay my taxes and have them go to prolonging a hellish experience of life imprisonment without a chance for parole for them. Day after day in a cell, WITH the general population, because then they would be put through far worse than what they kid to that boy.
